Rockabilly Raconteur Billy Lee Riley passed away today. He cut a lot of music in the late fifties on the Sun Label. Songs like "Red Hot", "Flying Saucer Rock 'n Roll", "Rockin' On The Moon", "High Heel Sneakers" and more. I always thought he had a great raw sound to his music, and although I never got the chance to see him live, I bet he put on a great show! Here's to you Billy Lee!
